more comfortable recording other instruments first and then adding the drums later on this will work as long as you record with a metronome. This ensures that the drummer and other rhythm instruments can follow the tempo of the song. For more info on using the internal metronome of the AW16G see page 47 of the manual.

The AW16G has two XLR input jacks, six TRS (tip, ring, and sleeve) 1/4- inch jacks, and a special Hi-Z input for connecting electric guitars or basses directly to the AW16G. Inputs 1 and 2 of the AW16G are the only inputs that can supply phantom power to condenser microphones.

Either microphones or devices such as keyboards or drum machines can be connected to inputs 3-8. If microphones with XLR outputs are to be connected to inputs 3-8, an XLR to TRS cable or adapter, should be used.

If unbalanced devices with 1/4- inch outputs are to be connected, then unbalanced 1/4" instrument cable should be used.
